Oxford Test of English (OTE)

We are an Approved Test Centre for the Oxford Test of English 
(established in 2019; currently on hold until early 2026).

The Oxford Test of English (OTE) is a new computer-adaptive test of English proficiency for non-native speakers of English, gaining more and more recognition in Europe and worldwide. It is accepted as proof of language alongside formats like TOEFL and TOEIC by many universities and other institutions.

It tests general English (CEFR levels A2-C1) and consists of four modules: Speaking, Listening, Reading, and Writing.

Hochschule Mainz Test Centre offers 2 versions of module combinations: 

  • Listening & Reading
  • 4 Skills (Listening, Reading, Speaking, Writing)

Test takers can choose between

  • OTE Standard (A2-B2)
  • OTE Advanced (B2-C1).
 

Test Dates

New test dates will be scheduled for early 2026. 

As soon as the OTE takes place again, you will find the dates here, as well as the corresponding registration deadlines.
